Glad to hear you got it fixed... I would give them a call to see if they're willing to do anything for you. If not, (as you said) no biggie since it was your choice to go elsewhere, but you never know... you may get some sort of compensation as others have said.

The CPO label from any brand is competely worthless. How they can think of 300 things to check and none of them be compression is beyond me.

Also cheap plugs won't cause your car to bog, old worn out plugs will.

Cheap plugs wear out faster, obiously they wore out prematurely because they were cheap.

The car is running fine now, and your right CPO really doesnt mean a damn thing.

Glad to hear you're back on the road.

I'm just curious - how long did you have the car before the issue started up?

Not entirely true. Our techs commonly have misfire codes with Champion Plugs.
